#fujix100v #ricohgriiix #cameracomparison
The difference in sharpness and quality with Ricoh is huge, didnt expect that.
Yeah pretty significant difference
I would borrow another x100v to confirm the softness, you need to determine if the softness consistent with all x100v or just the first x100v in the video
@@StuartRodwellI had both and just sold my Fuji X100V and Ricoh GRIIIX, the Fuji X100V is every bit as sharp as the GRIIIX, did you buy the Fuji second hand, it is faulty as the Lens on the Fuji X100V is razor sharp, I ordered the Fuji X100VI
@@DennisDomingoI had both and just sold my Fuji X100V and Ricoh GRIIIX so I could buy the new X100VI, The Fuji X100V is every bit as sharp as the Ricoh GRIIIX.
I imagine it had to do with him shooting at iso 160 and the shutter speed being a bit slower. The Ricoh has stabilization.
I like the way you compare camera and lenses in your videos, really help people decide on which one to get. Thanks Stuart!
my GRIIIx indeed very sharp. loving it.
Wow didn’t expect the Ricoh to be that sharp. Thanks for this. Decision has been made!
Great, great, great video! Hands down the best Fuji X100V v Ricoh GRIIIX comparison video on UA-cam. Thanks so much!! Subbed!!
Thanks!! Finally a very good video found that helped me a lot!
Wow - thanks for doing this comparison! 🙏
I own a Ricoh GRIII X since the model came out, and I am still amazed by the quality of the photos it produces, particulalry their sharpness. How can such a small thing produce such beautiful images ?
Great comparison video, nice background music, nicely done mate!
Thank you my friend 🙏🏻
I have owned different iterations of the X100. Sold the V a few weeks ago and got the Ricoh GRIII. First thing I've noticed was the sharpness difference. I'm so happy with this little camera!
Nice comparison of the cameras. Thank you for your time and effort that went into making the video.
As regards the softness of the images of the 100V as compared to the GR what were your JPEG settings? Perhaps you had sharpening set to zero or less in the V.
I would like to see a comparison with the X100VI
Samuel Streetlife has a recent video covering this very topic 👍
Great comparison, as always!
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
That is crazy . Glad i have the GRiiiX .
Huge difference!
Really appreciate this video 👍
I had a chance to use the GRIIX for a few hours. I love the color saturation and how sharp the lens was. I shot most of my compositions at f2.8. I was not sure how good they looked until I had a chance to view them on my large computer monitor. The vibrant colors and lack of color noise artifacts in the images were a pleasant surprise. I did not have a Fuji to compare but the results from the GRIIIX are very impressive. The lens is really as sharp as your video is showing.
I know this is a bit old now, but one thing to check on the Fuji is making sure Setup > Power Management > Performance is set to Boost. Can make a difference in the performance of the AF. I’d be curious to know if that changed your results at all. Either way, thanks for the comparison.😊
Thank you! I got the Fujifilm and the softness has been bothering me - good validation that I wasn't imagining it. Did you ever compare it to another x100v to ascertain if it's something wrong with yours (and maybe mine) vs that's just how it is with x100v? (I searched this video because I'm getting ready to sell my x100v and swap for the Ricoh, was searching comparisons)
so glad I own griiix!!!
I didn't like the X100V when I first tried it several years ago. I am on the pre-order list for the X100VI but have a Ricoh GRiii arriving today. If, as I suspect, I get very used to the Ricoh and enjoy what it gives back, then the pre-order will be cancelled. You aren't the first to highlight the softness of the X100V, and apparently, it hasn't got much better on the X100VI!! Great photos and video by the way 🙌
I have a GR IIIx and a Fuji X-E3 with the 27mm f2.8, so the field of view and widest aperture are the identical with the two. From my test shots, sharpness is equivalent. However, the Ricoh tends to be noisier, particularly at ISO 1000 and higher. I've tried adjusting the NR settings but still the Fuji images have less noise, which can have the effect of making an image less murky/blurry. Wondering if you have low-light shots to compare the two.
Thanx. Great video ❤️
Thanks for watching 🙌🏻
the sharpness difference is because the Fuji RAF files absolutely suck when edited in Lightroom. You need to do some procedures first, like using the super resolution + enhance details feature to even extract the full performance out of the Fuji files
I wanted the X100V, but couldn't get one so I settled for the GRIIIX, but I'm glad I did. I've been having fun shooting with it.
Great little camera! 🙌🏻
Don't bother getting the Fuji. You will be very disappointed. I own both.
How would you rate the autofocus single point of both cameras? especially in sunset-kind of light environment? Appreciate your inputs!
Thanks!
Did you use the smaller single shot box? Or the tracking box on the fuji?
The Fuji appears to me quite soft compared to the Ricoh. Great video from me in New Zealand. Thank you.
Ricoh is just amazing
I had to pause the video cause I was dying to check out the comments. It's good to see that people were pointing out that your Fuji might be faulty. I sold my Ricoh GRIIIX a few months ago, and I regret it every single day. I really hope you can figure out what went wrong with your Fuji. It's insane how sharp the Ricoh is!
I am getting a GRIIIX. The few hours I had to test it showed results similar to the ones in this video. I thought Fuji was known for their colors! The Ricoh colors are beyond fantastic and that lens sharpness is insane. I shot almost entirely at f2.8 and image after image they are perfectly sharp and way beyond my expectations.
What phone do you use as a photographer, iPhone or Android, which model and is there something can be only done on one over other?
Can you do X100VI vs GRIIIX?
Great to see you two back making videos!
Night and day for me, I thought the Fuji was missing focus but maybe just soft. I'd be of a mind to send it off and have it checked out!
Thanks! Literally picked up the a6700 yesterday so they’ll be more vids coming soon.
And yeah I’d be interested to see how the Fuji compared to another x100v - possible there’s an issue with it although it had a super low shutter count when I bought it 🤷🏻
@@StuartRodwell As an A6400 user who just changed to A6700 - I think you are going to be blown away by the difference! Can't wait to see what you think
Took some test footage last night and used slog3 for the 1st time - super impressed!!
i like the red coming from richo
Is it ideal to carry ricoh or just carry your phone if you want to shoot when you run in a marathon?
I'm surprised at how much more I prefer the colours out of the Ricoh but is it just me or does it render her face a little flatter than the X100V? I'd still pick the Fuji for the weather sealing and especially because I live in a dusty part of the world but I'd love the Ricoh as a camera I could take to events and parties where I don't want to think too hard about the photos I take.
Tia is an amazing model.
This doesn't surprise me. I have the GR3 and 3X, as well as several Fuji XT bodies/prime lenses. The 3x is insanely good (better than the 3, IMO). That said, I use my GR3 more simply because I'm more comfortable with the 28mm FOV. Thanks for the great video!
thank you for doing this film 。I want to buy Ricoh (cheaper and good enough ) easier to carry❤❤❤
sorry, but where in ricoh can i finf gold and seaside presets in menu?
Great job on the video. I suspected going in that the Ricoh would be sharper. It creates super sharp images overall. I have the a6400 with really good lenses and the Ricoh is still sharper than that setup even with Sony's incredible AF. Cheers! - Brett
Thanks Brett - yeah I agree, I’ve been blown away with sharpness and quality of the Ricoh images!
Yo, great video. That F2 vs f2.8 is really making no difference at all in terms of bokeh/dof and the Ricoh is clearly sharper across the board. Considering that and the portability, the Ricoh is a no brainer for me. It doesnt have flash but it gets IBIS. Doesn't have an EVF but its way cheaper. Seems like a no brainer to me.
The sharpness has gotta be a byproduct of the IBIS.
I do preordered the Fuji X100 VI. I do hope to get one, but I wish the VI is sharper than the V. PS.: I still own the Ricoh GR film camera. Still in very new condition, not that much in usea. I bought it in 2000 - 24 years ago! Hope Ricoh bring out soon a Ricoh GR IV.
Where is this place?
This why I sold the X100V and got the Ricoh!
As an owner of both, your fuji is definitely back-focusing. You didn't nail the focus on the eye in any of the test shots making it look blurry. Even my old x100f with its inferior lens got way sharper images than what you showed.
I had similar experience with the X100F AF and sharpness. I thought the new lens on the V and VI is much better, but that is clearly not the case. I still have the X100VI on preorder, but having second thoughts... The problem is that there are a few things I do not like on the ricoh either ... so it is more like: neither of these cameras is the right fit for me...
Who is the model?
vs Nikon 40mm f2?
Not that sad anymore for not getting an Fuji x100v... sad for getting the GRIIIX and not the GRIII :|
Still like Fuji colours more
Got both. Ricoh gr3x is definitely sharper. However, my V does not take soft photos as yours 😊
Sony RX1R II is sharper than Ricoh GRIIIX
So it’s February 2024 and am confused whether to get Richo gr3 or wait for gr4 to come!! Any suggestions for me?
Where can we find the “Seaside Preset”?!
There’s a link to my presets in the description 👍🏻
i'd consider having that fuji looked at. even my first gen x100 isn't anywhere near that soft wide open and definitely not that soft stopped down.
Yeah I’d be interested to see how the Fuji compared to another x100v - possible there’s an issue with it although it had a super low shutter count when I bought it 🤷🏻
Yes, without the anti-aliasing filter on the Ricoh, nothing in its field can touch it for sharpness. Still no mention or credit for your daughters modelling?
Missed your videos, seems like you took a break of few months... :)
Yeah been struggling to find the time! More
videos in the pipeline though 👍🏻
i can't find a youtube video that compares video features instead
I would borrow someone else's Fuji x100v and test it again the ricoh just to make sure regarding the sharpness
Very surprised with the sharpness of the Ricoh. Will you consider re-doing this comparision with the X100VI? 🤓
Absolutely ….if Fuji would care to send me one 😂
@@StuartRodwell Fingers crossed. I’m contemplating ordering the VI as we speak. Looking at trading in a bunch of old Sony stuff… it’s so painful, the little amount of money you get for it, I’m tempted to just keep it all! Haha
Sharpness is only x1 factor
Dynamic range is more important for me
Ricoh, the best !
Honestly shocked by the results.
I assume the sharpness difference is caused by your software. It's known, that Fuji pictures doesn't look good in Adobe e.g. the Fuji Software ONE (something) should be used.
Something is broken down in that Fuji or what?!😱 or focus system out of tune etc
The Fuji X100v its about shooting experience.
Some how many peoples have the same problems with fujifilm x100 vi about slightly out of focus/ soft on the face not 100% focus. That real disappointment for a camera that expensive .
Something definitely seems off about that fuji being that soft.
Yeah I’d be interested to see how the Fuji compared to another x100v - possible there’s an issue with it although it had a super low shutter count when I bought it 🤷🏻
Loved my GR III.......................until I dropped it. The lens housing just disintegrated. Have been told it will have to go to Ricoh in Japan to be repaired and its probably not worth the expense. Very disappointed.
the softness is not common.... I have tack sharp pictures at f2. something is wrong with your x100v
I had both and just sold my Fuji X100V and Ricoh GRIIIX, the Fuji X100V is every bit as sharp as the GRIIIX, did you buy the Fuji second hand, it is faulty as the Lens on the Fuji X100V is razor sharp, I ordered the Fuji X100VI
Ricoh is so sharp they had to make a soft version for 2024 lol
Promo-SM 😚
it looks like the fuji never got focus
Why did you only show the tests on the lowest apertures? And on one example you said you stopped down the fuji but the data onscreen says F2. Useless
Your x100v is a dud.
both cameras are pretty useless: Fuji has a flawed AF ( sees faces where there are none) / MF has no hyperfocal distance scale vs Ricoh sucks in dust every time you switch on the camera and the lens extends ( also costs time to get ready to shoot ) + BAD AF + NO Flash ( gave up on both Q3 is much better )
Segun Boogie la Ricoh es buenísima salvo el flash, y el polvo que se introduce en ella con el tiempo
